    Go into the arts. I’m not kidding. The arts are not a way to make a living. They are a very human way of making life more bearable. Practising an art, no matter how well or badly, is a way to make your soul grow, for heaven’s sake. Sing in the shower. Dance to the radio. Tell stories. Write a poem to a friend, even a lousy poem. Do it as well as you possibly can. You will get an enormous reward. You will have created something.

    Unfortunately, this is a real restaurant and that is a real response. Their page was not hacked and thus trolled (that I know of). The owners are just really crazy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G6LY7TJ16pg

    holy FUCK watch that video

    i just watched that video (and the part 2). unbelievable

    I’m like 7 minutes in and jesus christ

    HOLY BALLS, I SAW THE FULL EPISODE ABOUT THIS TRAIN-WRECK OF A RESTAURANT.

    GORDON RAMSAY LEFT THE RESTAURANT WITHOUT CHANGING IT BECAUSE HE SAID HE WAS SCARED AND DISTURBED BY THE PLACE AND IT’S OWNERS.

    LET ME REPEAT THAT.

    GORDON FUCKING RAMSAY SAID HE WAS SCARED AND DISTURBED BY HOW VICIOUS THE OWNERS ARE.

    I like being alone, but I hate the feeling of being lonely.

    When you’re alone, you have time for yourself. Your thoughts finally catch up to you. You set your mind on things and everything is just clearer. Nothing’s bothering you and everything just feels right for once.

    When you feel lonely, you feel as if no one’s there for you. It feels like no one understands you or is willing to listen. It feels like you’re screaming in a crowded room, but yet not one person looks up.

    unaired pilot of 30 rock starring rachel dratch as jenna decarlo

    which one do you guys like better?

    It will be a total different show in my opinion, the dynamic between Liz and Jenna would be different, even Tina as Liz Lemon seems hotter than Rachel/Jenna here! That would a total non-sense show in my opinion!!

    I really like how they use Jane for the Jenna’s character, I think it gave the show all that craziness, it wasn’t a role for Rachel, but I would kill to have her as a recurrent character…

    I love Rachel. I understand her struggle in trying to find work, and I sympathize with her, but I think Jane is a better Jenna. Jane was golden in that role, which doesn’t mean she is a better actress than Rachel Dratch. It would have been nice for Rachel to get some other roles, not even necessarily on 30 Rock, but she didn’t. Although they are both great actresses and hilarious people, Jane Krakowski embodied Jenna Maroney and deserves to be recognized for that

    i love rachel dratch, i really do. she is my favorite snl castmember and SO funny, but jesus this was not going to work out.

    Fey and Carlock made a wise choice in casting someone with strong musical theatre chops to play a neurotic (and increasingly narcissistic) character who had skills that Dratch didn’t have, making Jenna an entirely different character. I’m interested to see what the show would have been like if Dratch stayed on. I feel like it’s unfair to say the show would not have been as great as it was. Then again, I still feel like they made a wise choice in recasting the role and turning the character in a different direction.

    I am a professional, Liz. I have never broken during a performance—ever! I was on stage in ‘Pippin’ with Irene Ryan when she died and I kept going.

    I sometimes sit and think how brilliant this line is.

    if you ever think mythology is boring or serious business or whatever shit

    just remember that cerberus, the hell-hound and guard dog of the underworld, comes from the root indo-european word ḱerberos, which evolved into the greek word kerberos, which got changed to cerberus when it went from greek to latin

    ḱerberos means “spotted”

    that’s right

    Photo Series of a Young Girl Dressed Up as Great Women Throughout History

    Photographer Jaime Moore‘s daughter Emma recently turned 5 years old. Naturally, being a photographer, Moore wanted to commemorate the event for her daughter by putting together a cute photo shoot for her, so she turned to the Internet for inspiration.

    Much to her chagrin, however, something like 95 percent of the ideas she ran into were actually the same idea: how to dress up your 5-year-old as a Disney Princess. Moore wasn’t keen on that, so she went another way. Instead of dressing her daughter up as a made up ideal, an “unrealistic fantasy” as she put it, she chose to dress and pose her daughter as some of the greatest women throughout history.

    The point was to convey to little Emma that she could be anything she wants to be. As Moore explains it on her blog:

    My daughter wasn’t born into royalty, but she was born into a country where she can now vote, become a doctor, a pilot, an astronaut, or even President if she wants and that’s what REALLY matters.

    Each photo is also captioned with an inspirational quote by the amazing woman it portrays. To see all of them in higher resolution and read more about Moore’s inspiration for the project, head over to her website by clicking here.
